Lyrics
Description
[Verse 1]
Morning hair, sunlight on your cheek,
Mango-sweet laugh down by the street,
Your footsteps hum like market drums,
My heart keeps time when your day comes.
(Performance note: soft conga groove, light guitar chop)
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Heartbeat quick — I can't disguise,
I find the sunrise in your eyes,
We move slow, we move with grace,
Night fades out when I see your face.
[Chorus]
When you smile — light up my life. (Ah-ah!)
When you smile — chase the night. (Ooh-ooh!)
When you smile — light up my life. (Call: "Oya!" / Response: "Yeah!")
I love you when you smile. (Short, punchy hook / backing shouts)
[Verse 2]
Your laughter spills like summer rain,
Mango on the stoop, sweet on my name,
City hum, but you make it home,
We dance slow, then we run and roam.
(Performance note: add sparse horns on 2nd line)
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Heartbeat sure — no more disguise,
I learned the map inside your eyes,
From shy to bold, from maybe to mine,
I promise, love — we’ll keep this time.
[Chorus]
When you smile — light up my life. (Ah-ah!)
When you smile — chase the night. (Ooh-ooh!)
When you smile — light up my life. (Call: "Ehen!" / Response: "Fire!")
I love you when you smile. (Lead + layered harmonies)
[Horn Interlude]
(Horn riff — bright, syncopated; percussion fills between phrases)
(Ad-lib lead: "Ooh, ooh, ooh" — backing responds)
[Bridge]
Sometimes the sky turns grey and loud,
I feared the wind would carry you out,
But your hand stayed, steady and warm,
You hold the calm inside the storm.
(Bridge vocal run, soft percussion then swell)
[Bridge - Call & Response]
Lead: I was scared I'd lose my way —
Backing: No, no, no! (Oya!)
Lead: You pulled the night into the day —
Backing: Forever stay!
[Final Chorus - Variation]
When you smile — light up my life. (Ad-libs: "naaa")
When you smile — all wrong turns right. (Backing: "All right!")
When you smile — light up my life. (Big harmonies, horns)
I love you when you smile — I love you when you smile.
(Performance note: call-and-response doubles, handclap layer, big horn hits)
[Outro]
Light up my life — keep shining on,
Keep on glowing till the stars are gone,
I love you when you smile — ooh —
I love you when you smile. (Fade with ad-libs and soft conga)
(Performance notes summary: Use syncopated Afrobeat drums, layered percussion fills before each chorus; backing vocals to answer lines with "Ah-ah", "Ooh-ooh", "Ehen/Oya" calls; horn stabs for accent and a mid-song horn solo; leave space for improvised ad-libs on the last chorus.)
